Still owning the libs though! /s
You missed libertarians
Libertarians are MAGA that admit to doing drugs.
This is the real answer. He’s hurting the people they hate and don’t understand, like democrats and trans folks. I really, really don’t think they care about the long-term health and prosperity of the country.
What’s the significance of the amputated leg?
As a metaphor I get it, but it seems to be a reference that I’m not getting.
Shot himself in the foot?
Could be paying an arm and a leg. He already paid with his leg, doesn’t realize that the arms next. Also why he’s still optimistic. Doesn’t realize that the worst of it hasn’t even happened yet. (Also the artist might have just not known how to draw him chained up like the rest with just one arm)
Not sure, probably meant to indicate the MAGA is someone in need of care, someone on disability or a veteran. Someone who was directly impacted by maga decisions but still drinks the Kool-aid
Saw an idiot on social media say, “Sometimes you have to knock it down to rebuild”, in response to Trump killing the Department of Education. I asked him it he figures Trump has a concept of a plan to rebuild critical institutions.
Accelerationist claptrap. These people have given up hope for real progress, so they’re going to hand over full control to the billionaires to see if that fixes things.
I have begun entirely rejecting bullshit mantras that begin with “Sometimes”.
“Sometimes” is dismissive self-justifying word salad. Give a confident, circumstances-based ideology, or shut the fuck up.
Sometimes thinking is too hard
Never really thought of the effect that “sometimes” has on a sentence, but now I see your point. God dammit, I think you’ve infected me with your knowledge. I hope the “sometimes” cop-out is not as wide spread as I fear…
It’s 80% of the mantras of villains in fictional media. “Sometimes babies must be killed etc etc”.
until it is about climate change policies and then they drop this rhetoric
Any bad faith port in the storm of “Own The Libs Even if it Kills You.”
I’m old enough to remember Sarah Palin freaking out and eating fried butter* because Obama made a speech where he said Americans should ‘eat their vegetables.’
*Deep fried butter is an actual thing that I, as an American, was unaware of.
Not an american but, apparently, still as much confused as you are over the concept.
As an American I understand the concept of deep frying as a personal lifestyle choice.
I suppose the best analogy would be the difference between knowing horses were a thing and actually getting on a buking bronco.
I grew being told, playfully, that if fried a shoe would taste nice. But no. Too much of a good thing is bad for you.
It’s called ‘oliebollen’ in Belgium and the Netherlands. They also have derivatives with apple inside and some other ones.
Not sure which came first though ( us or be/nl ).
Roasted butter does sound better than the literal translation from dutch ( oil balls ).
Edit: the wiki page references them being invented in the us. The wiki page for the Dutch/Belgian variant mentions Spanish/Portuguese Jews when fleeing the the Netherlands from the Spanish inquisition.
At least I think they’re the same as roasted butter
Oliebollen are fried batter, which is made of flour, yeast, salt, sugar and some liquid (water, beer, milk). I’m not familiar with the American thing but it sounds like they’re literally coating a stick of butter in batter before frying it.
Looks like it’s not the same then! I stand corrected.
If you think about it, butter is actually the freshest cheese you can get. So, it’s really just super fresh cheese sticks.
By that logic, fried eggs are the same as fried chicken
I think you have some faulty logic there. Fried eggs would be the same as scrambled eggs or fried whipped eggs. It’s a different version of the same thing.
Life begins at conception! Or before. A chicken fetus is a chicken, an unfertilized egg is a potential chicken fetus
The extreme of that logic is like saying you do eat your vegetables … because your food originally ate vegetables
It’s weird they do this. Didn’t they say that communism is evil because famine and shit? Like look at China now. They are pretty much on top of their game and only growing bigger. They had a famine when trying to advance at break neck speeds, but they get shit for it.
Meanwhile shock therapy in places like Russia that killed as many people as the holodomor (but also over a longer period of time) doesn’t get the same crap.
Yeah… Every time I mention the looming recession, this is the answer…
“it’s just temporary”
We are fucking temporary, you dumbasses!
UK here, in austerity since 2008… it ain’t temporary this is the economy they want.
Fuck me? They still have those policies after almost 20 years?
Fuck Uncle Sam. He aint on the rack.
